Just in time for rain [恰逢雨连天] - Chapter 32

[32. Chapter 31]

Zhu Minda’s eyes were cold, and she looked at Sister Yuan’er and said, “Go and recognize it.”

Sister Yuan’er bowed her head and said yes, walked slowly to Su Jin and recognized it carefully, and then bowed to Zhu Minda Yingying. : “Go back to the prince, the slave family has indeed seen this person in the backyard of the Ma Mansion.”

Zhu Min said coldly: “So, the Ma Mansion is playing a game against you tonight, just to lure this person to come, right?”

Sister Yuan’er looked at Su Jin glanced, nodded and said, “It should be.”

Zhu Minda’s eyes swept to Wu Yuzheng, Wu Yuzheng understood, and continued the trial: “Just now in the Mafu, why did you insist that a servant girl let this person go?”

Sister Yuan’er Weepingly said: “My lord knows, it’s all a matter of rights and interests. If the slave family doesn’t insist that this maid will let this person go, the people in Ma’s house will suspect the slave family and they will kill the slave family.”

Zhu Minda raised his mouth and smiled . “You’re so smart.” He asked again, “So, you let the servant go while the maid was delivering medicine?”

Unexpectedly, Sister Yuaner shook her head after hearing this. Looking at Su Jin with both eyes, he suddenly asked, “Why is the son here?”

Su Jin thought that Sister Yuan’er had betrayed her, but when she heard this sentence, she realized –

Sister Yuan’er I don’t know what happened. I was afraid that I would find out if I lied, but it would hurt everyone, so I told most of the truth. It was not until I heard the prince’s last question and guessed that he was suspicious that Su Jin was pretending to be a maid, so he deliberately asked, Let Su Jin round up this lie by himself.

Really can’t underestimate this woman who has been in the wind and moon field for several years.

Su Jin thought for a while, and was about to answer when Shen Xi made an “ah”, raised a folding fan that came from nowhere, pointed at Su Jin, and asked, “Since the two of you belong to Ma Shaoqing’s mansion, you used to Have you seen him?” The

two looked at each other and shook their heads.

Shen Xi retracted the folding fan, tapped it in the palm of his hand, and asked, “Since we don’t know each other, why did the two of you let him go to the banquet hall to accompany you? Young Master, have you never been suspicious? This is unreasonable.” The

maid and the old servant in charge hurriedly knelt down: “Reporting to this lord, there is a banquet in the house today. In addition to the people in our house, we also invited a few cooks and maids from outside. We are only the servant girl, no, the son, he was invited from outside, so I didn’t think much about it.”

Shen Xi smiled and said, “Ma Shaoqing is the young minister of Guanglu Temple, what does Guanglu Temple do? “In the matter of the wine, wine and food in Yanxiang, you said that the other government held a family banquet and invited people from outside. This official letter, you said that Ma Shaoqing invited people.” He put the folding fan behind him, put his hands on his back, and said: “Really? I don’t have any knowledge, do you?”

Shen Xi actually knew that the Ma House had invited a group of “outsiders” from outside to help set the banquet.

No, it’s not enough to say “please”, it should be said that this group of people was forced into Mafu by Zeng Youliang.

Otherwise, without these “outsiders” poisoning the back kitchen, how could Zeng Youliang blame Ma Shaoqing for murdering His Highness the Thirteenth, and get out of his own body.

Now that the incident has happened, the few outsiders in Ma’s house have long since disappeared, and the poisoned drinking utensils have also been destroyed.

Shen Xizheng was troubled by this. Although he blocked Zeng Youliang in the Ma Mansion, it was a pity that he could not find any evidence to kill Zhu Nanxian, so he couldn’t.

But Shen Qingyue was born with an exquisite mind. If he wanted to convict anyone, even if there was no evidence, he had to make up one.

Right now there is a big play, and it depends on whether anyone on the field can hear the sound of the strings and know the elegance.

Zhu Minda didn’t respond to Shen Xi’s question.

Wu Yufeng turned and asked Sister Yuan’er: “Why are you curious about Su Jin here? Didn’t you let him go?”

Sister Yuan’er didn’t know how to answer for a while, so she gritted her teeth and said randomly: “If you go back to His Highness, the slave family doesn’t have any. Let him go, he…he’s been hiding in the haystack of the woodshed.”

Zhu Minda raised his eyebrows: “Oh, then Ben Gong would like to know. Why did Governor Su appear in the south of the city, hiding in the haystack?” Before

Su Jin could answer, Liu Chaoming, who was standing beside her, said: “Go back Your Highness, Wei Chen ordered the imperial censor to bring her to the south of the city.”

The blood on his shoulder stopped for a while, but his face and lips were pale.

Zhu Minda’s eyes swept over and glanced at the wound on his shoulder, as if he didn’t care: “Oh, this palace has forgotten that Master Liu has the ability to predict the future.”

Liu Chaoming said: “Your Highness misunderstood, Wei Chen. Knowing that Su Jin was privately investigating the disappearance of a Gong Shi, the case was complicated, and it seemed to be related to the previous case of the official’s troubles. The mansion.”

Zhu Minda asked, “Since Master Liu knew about this matter, why didn’t he directly order the imperial censor to go to the Ma manor to search for evidence because he was the head of all officials?”

At this time, Su Jin asked. : “Go back to Your Highness, it was Wei Chen who asked Master Liu to come.”

Zhu Minda snorted coldly and ignored her.

Su Jin lowered his eyes, and quickly read Shen Xi’s words, sister Yuan’er’s words, and Liu Chaoming’s words carefully, and said: “Because just now Wei Chen was hiding in the haystack, I heard someone say, His Royal Highness Thirteenth Went to the south of the city and wanted someone to chase after him, and just after the imperial censor came to look for it, Wei Chen told the censor the news and came to the south of the city with Lord Liu.”

Zhu Minda turned his head abruptly, “Oh?” one sound.

A faint smile appeared on Su Jin’s lips, but when she raised her head, she was thinking hard and thinking carefully: “Oh, Wei Chen seems to have heard them say that it was the lord of the Ministry of Officials. If you don’t kill the Thirteenth Highness tonight, if you don’t succeed, then you will be benevolent?”

After Zhu Minda heard this, a hint of relief finally appeared in his cold eyes.

Yes, that’s what he’s for tonight.

He doesn’t care about Su Jin’s life or death, but if he can lure the fisherman behind her from the “bait” of Su Jin and seize the evidence that Lao Qi harmed 13, then Lao Qi will lose a layer of skin if he doesn’t die this time. .

And Su Jin just guessed Zhu Minda’s purpose, so he made up this nonsense to make himself “bait” from a game to a witness in this game.

As a witness, the prince had to save her life.

Zeng Youliang listened to Su Jin’s words, his eyes widened with anger. He first looked at Shen Xi, then at Liu Chaoming, and finally at Su Jin. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t understand what was going on. The spear turned directly at him?

Even though he instructed people to poison Zhu Nanxian, Su Jin’s words were made up and framed!

Zeng Youliang pointed at Su Jin with shaking hands: “You, you spit out blood! If this old man knew that His Highness Thirteen was in danger and it was too late to save him, how could he harm him?!”

Su Jin looked at Zeng Youliang and said lightly, “What are you doing in such a hurry, my lord? , Xiaguan said that it was the adults who killed His Highness Thirteen? The Xiaguan said that it was an adult in the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of Personnel went up and down, is it only you, Zeng Shangshu, who can’t do it?”

Shen Xi said: “Yes, including Zeng Ping, I will go to the office tonight. Zeng Shangshu is not the only one in Yan.” Then he cupped his hand with his fan and turned to ask Zhu Minda for instructions, “His Royal Highness, since there are witnesses, Zeng Shangshu and Lang Zhong may not be able to clear their suspicions for the time being. Have you caught it?”

Zhumin Dawei nodded, raised his hand and waved.

Yulin Wei escorted Zeng Youliang and Zeng Ping to the ground.

Zhu Minda coldly ordered, “Take it away!” Then he glanced at Shen Xi and Zhu Nanxian, and said, “Thirteen, Qingyue, you two will go back to the palace with this palace.”

Yu Linwei quickly led two horses . Malay.

Zhu Nanxian was silent for a moment, then walked over with his eyes lowered.

It was almost dawn, and this night of life and death, although he could protect her from the bloody storm at Zhaohe Bridge, he could not find peace for her in the ensuing turbulent conspiracy.

It is clearly the fish in this game, but he is like an outsider.

Zhu Nanxian got on his horse without saying a word, but finally couldn’t help but turn his head and glance at Su Jin.

Su Jin also raised his eyes and looked at him.

Looking at each other, Zhu Nanxian was stunned for a moment, then he turned his head and left.

As soon as Zhu Minda left, Zhu Mixiao and all the ministers watched the big play, and they also said goodbye to each other in a messy way and left.

As dawn approached, Yingtiancheng seemed to be immersed in a dark mist.

Just now, Zhu Minda asked the question, the strings in his head were tense all the time, and he didn’t care about the upper shoulder injury. It was only at this time that the pain in the shoulder suddenly came, and Liu Chaoming groaned. Because of too much blood loss, he almost failed to stand still .

Su Jin was going to help him, but he stepped back and avoided it.

Liu Chaoming held his shoulders, looked deep into the streets with a deep look, and asked, “Name.”

Su Jin was silent for a while: “The last name is Xie.”

Sure enough.

No wonder the old imperial censor, after reading Su Jin’s “Qing Silk Banknotes”, pointed to one of the sentences: “The chaos in the world is due to the failure of official governance; the failure of official governance is due to the absence of talents” (Note): “This sentence has the legacy of an old man. ”

No wonder the old imperial censor only saw Su Jin once, so he desperately tried his best to save her even after giving up his legs.

It turns out that she is not only the legacy of the old man, she is simply the queen of the old man.

Liu Chaoming turned his head to look at her, and asked, “What’s your name?”

Su Jin’s eyes flashed with confusion, and he said in a low voice, “I have no name, only the small character ‘Ayu’, A Weng said before, wait for me When it’s time to get married, it will give me a good name, but unfortunately,” she paused, “I didn’t wait.”

Liu Chaoming’s heart sank.

The clerk from the Metropolitan Court brought the carriage and stood at the end of the long alley waiting for him.

Liu Chaoming was silent for a while, and with a soft “um” sound, he ignored Su Jin and walked towards the carriage.

He was a little confused, he had never owed anyone in his life, except for the entrustment of the old imperial censor five years ago.

But the truth of this entrustment is so ridiculous.

The person he promised to keep for the rest of his life originally thought that he was just seeking a foothold for her in the treacherous court.

But never thought to be a woman.

She is a woman, how does he come to guard?

In Liu Chaoming’s heart, it was like an island where the tide was rising. Every time he took a step, a thought came up and another thought fell.

At the age of nineteen, he entered the Metropolitan Police Court, and he only wished to follow the aspirations of the old imperial censor, to clean up the administration of officials, and to keep his heart as one.

In my impression, the only woman who came close was the granddaughter of the old imperial censor. Therefore, before the death of the queen, the old censor made the decision and set an engagement date for him and his granddaughter.

It was a woman with a beautiful face. He had only spoken to her twice, and he couldn’t even remember what she looked like.

I just remember that she died of an emergency before she was greeted.

After Liu Chaoming helped the old censor take care of the funeral, he stood in the mansion full of white flags, and suddenly thought, this is fine, he is a humble person, in this life, it is good to be a censor, what else Taking into account too much will be neglected.

He always thought it was fine until the old imperial censor passed away.

On his deathbed, he said that Su Shiyu’s life was too difficult, too difficult.

He also said that you must find her and keep her for life with your power.

Liu Chaoming’s heart was shocked, he stopped, turned around, and saw Su Jin standing on the bridge head alone, looking at the bridge head full of blood and broken limbs, wondering what he was thinking.

He had always thought that her appearance was really a eloquent flower head born out of indifference, but now, it seemed like she was taking pleasure in pain and taking care of herself.

He thought she was lonely.

Liu Chaoming turned back abruptly, grabbed Su Jin’s wrist tightly, and turned back before waiting for her to respond: “Follow me.”
